ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for pouring concrete on a bridge is disclosed employing rail-mounted pouring and related equipment and separate rail-mounted rolling pipe for attachment to a concrete source system located on an approach to the area to be poured. The equipment rail and rolling pipe rail are both mounted on stable overhang brackets located outboard of the area to be poured. A power tractor is also mounted in the approach area on the rolling pipe rail and straddles the vertical reinforcing members located on the outside edges of the bridge deck. The tractor pushes the rolling pipe and permits a flexible hose connection to a stationary concrete pump located on the approach. A spring-loaded telescoping channel connection allows the trolleys on the tractor and the idler trolleys supporting the rolling pipe to be clamped securely to the rail.
